Solution Overview

Problem

Current risk analysis technologies for datacenter migration require significant user workload due to the need for manual input and determination of legal and contractual risks, including the absence of pre-existing determination results, leading to inefficiencies and increased workload.

Innovation Solution

A risk analysis device and method that automatically extracts and compares migration information from business application, applicable law, and contract data to determine legal or contractual risks, reducing the user's workload by automating the analysis process.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual input and determination of legal and contractual risks is performed, then risk analysis accuracy is improved, but user workload increases enormously

Engineering Contradiction:

Improverisk analysis accuracyVSAvoiduser workload

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs automatic extraction of migration information from business application information, applicable law information, and contract information. The risk determination unit autonomously compares extracted information and determines legal and contractual risks without requiring manual user input, thereby maintaining accuracy while eliminating enormous workload

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces manual mechanical processes (user reading, understanding, and determining risks) with an automated information processing system that extracts and compares data systematically, substituting human cognitive effort with computational analysis

Inventive Principle:

Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Reliability

If comprehensive risk inspection is performed covering applications, data, contracts, and laws, then risk detection completeness is improved, but inspection time increases enormously

Engineering Contradiction:

Improverisk detection completenessVSAvoidinspection time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system extracts migration information from business application information, applicable law information, and contract information in advance of the actual migration. This preliminary extraction and organization of data enables rapid risk determination when needed, without requiring time-consuming comprehensive inspection at the moment of migration

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent divides the comprehensive risk inspection into separate extraction processes for different information types (business application information, applicable law information, contract information), allowing parallel processing and systematic analysis that reduces overall inspection time while maintaining completeness

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

The determination of legal or contractual risks in datacenter migration is performed by: storing business application information which is information about management of applications and data, applicable law information at a datacenter and contract information about a contract with a datacenter; extracting first migration information, which is information regarding datacenter migration, from business application information associated with a particular application and particular data which are migration targets; extracting second migration information, which is information regarding the datacenter migration, from applicable law information associated with a migration destination datacenter; extracting third migration information, which is information regarding the datacenter migration, from contract information associated with the migration destination datacenter; and comparing the first and second migration information with the third migration information.
